So, I’ve been accepted to Kupo Con in Montreal in April 2020! This is my first convention since AnimeNEXT 2016, it’s been a very long time. I’m excited to do this one in particular since I wanted to sell at a Kupo Con since the first one they had in Newark, NJ a couple years ago. With that being said, it HAS been a long time since I’ve sold at a convention and with that comes with thinking about what I’m selling, how I’m doing it what I need to update.

First things first, I had to really mull over the subject matter. Of course I have a lot of Final Fantasy merchandise/items/art. But I realized I could make a lot more and make variants as well, other games for instance that are JRPGs or related to Square Enix. Chrono Trigger, Bravely Default, SMRPG etc. games like this.

I also thought about adding on an additional set of products to sell. I mainly sell pinback buttons, they’re pretty easy to handle and make for that matter and aren’t a financial sink. But since I plan to go to more conventions in the years to come it might be worth investing in something new now.

Stickers!

I used to sell stickers a long time ago at Smash tournaments. Of course I discontinued doing this, the art needed major rework and I wound up becoming more involved in organizing events at the time. But, here we are in 2019… so I’ve been thinking of reinvesting some time in to some sticker sheets. I have a lot of cute ideas for sheets, and I wouldn’t be making anymore than 3 or 4 types of sheets (if even that). I just need to find a place to get them done which… I believe I found but it comes all down to price right now.

On the other hand, I’ve made a large list of new button designs to make which will be fun, but I have a lot of work ahead of me.

I plan to blog about my progress and updates up until the actual event 😀 maybe it’ll come in handy for myself and others in some way!
